Hi All.
My current web provider is changing stuff all over now, so I thought it might be time for an overhaul.
When I set up my first one I was not on facebook, so I put loads of galleries and pics on the site, but looking back now I think there is just too much to wade through.
Now I am on facebook, where I get most of my contacts from, I have streamlined my web-site, but linked it to facebook.
This is my old web-site www.funtimeballoonsweymouth.com (http://www.funtimeballoonsweymouth.com)
This is the new www.funtimeballoonsweymouth.co.uk (http://www.funtimeballoonsweymouth.co.uk)
I did the site myself, with help from friends, and is free for the first month (it's Vistaprint) so I would appreciate your comments, and suggestions for improvements,
Many thanks
I prefer the layout of the new site, I like its compactness and it is easy to read being streamlined down the middle of the page. I did like the FAQ page on your old one - particularly about the eco-friendliness of balloons (as is something I don't think people realize).
My only other comment is about the link to Facebook - as it is a link to a Facebook personal page rather than a Fan Page (may now just be called Facebook Pages), I think that could put people off as they have to become friend rather than just "like" your page - and with people being concerned about privacy often won't be friends with people they don't know personally. I think Facebook is great way of keeping people informed but think would work better as a fan page.
Hope it is ok for me to comment - I have recently been doing some Fan pages for a couple of not for profit groups am involved with so have been made quite conscious of the different ways of using Facebook (I have a facebook page I dabble on (I think you commented on it with the jewelry from balloons links) and they are very easy to set up).
